@Dario_Pasalic @ParikhSimul @themednet @MayoRadOnc I agree, I used to use this tool all the time before I became more reliant on pubmed. I think I’ll edit my mednet post to include this. Thank you!

@ParikhSimul @themednet @MayoRadOnc Great discussion by Dr. Rajkumar. I also like the MSKCC supplement search tool which can give you a nice summary of mechanism of action or interactions. mskcc.org/cancer-care/di…

@joshuapalmermd @ParikhSimul @themednet @MayoRadOnc @aiims2738 @EvanThomas84 Another great example of a supplemental approach I’d never heard of until now. You never know until someone says “I heard about…” and you do a search for it. Thanks for sharing!

@ParikhSimul @themednet @MayoRadOnc @aiims2738 @EvanThomas84 We have published our initial case: appliedradiationoncology.com/articles/role-… And there is a randomised placebo controlled study from Germany: acsjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.10… We have an abstract as an oral at ASTRO this year and I am hoping to spread the word to anyone who is interested.

Here is a great opportunity for current medical students to check out our outstanding, education-focused residency program.

@SbrtSean Do you include SBRT in the bucket of “palliative RT”? Also, if he only completed “several” cycles of docetaxel, was this development of CRPC within just a few months of starting ADT?

Prostate Cancer Case of the Day: 70 yo with De Novo Large Volume Metastatic Disease Initiates ADT and Completes Several Cycles of Docetaxel. PSA starts to Rise and Progressive Left Hip Pain What Next?

Oh wow…this part about sugar for a quick dopamine surge hits hard. Also, I still have a LOT of delayed gratification. Thanks so much for sharing, @DrKyraWrites!

Thank you to ROVER for all you do, including hosting the information across residency programs for medical students! Register here for our meet and greets: surveymonkey.com/r/TD9YNLN. First one is on Thursday this week!

@VUMCRadOnc @BrianBinghamMD Big thanks to our instructors over the years for the dedication to our physics and rad bio curricula, including during a pandemic!

Not sure how we forgot to post this - but further congratulations to all of our PGY-5s @BrianBinghamMD @ARajkumarMD #RyanWhitaker for passing physics and rad bio boards!

@SbrtSean I selected other because @VUMCRadOnc rectal spacer is offered to everyone but required for those undergoing SBRT. Patients undergoing IMRT who refuse spacer want to skip the TRUS + any add’l needles - bad memories from their biopsy

Interesting, The Majority of Early Voters Felt that Rectal Spacers Were More Important for SBRT than IMRT. The Pivotal Study Showed Decrease Grade 2 GI Toxicity Following Prostate IMRT with Spacer. Why are You Not Using It?

Prostate SBRT Delivers High Biologically Effective Doses with Tight Margins! Is a Rectal Spacer More Important for IMRT or SBRT?

@nbn426 @mader826 @VUMCRadOnc Simultaneously so happy for @nbn426 and so sad for us to lose him

I remember my first week I was overwhelmed in clinic , and two of our excellent nurses guided me through! Now as the end is near they were proud to see me grow up! Thanks @mader826 and Tresa Sadnick last few years @VUMCRadOnc wouldn’t have been the same without you!

@VUMCRadOnc takes less than 2 minutes!

@fumikochino @DrWinkfield @theNCI @VUMCRadOnc @ASTRO_org @ASCO @ARRO_org @ACRORadOnc I spent a week on rotation with @fumikochino as an M4 during my away rotation. I’m letting you know...you have fan girls, too, and this panel is so exciting!

@DrWinkfield @theNCI @VUMCRadOnc @ASTRO_org @ASCO @ARRO_org @ACRORadOnc 👈👈👈The original @DrWinkfield fan girl! SO EXCITED to have a good discussion about breaking down barriers to access, improving affordability, and facilitating patient-centered cancer care! 🤜🤛

Can't believe I'm finally going to be on a panel with @fumikochino talking about #financialtoxicity!! Come join us ~4pm during @theNCI's 3rd #Cancer #HealthDisparities Symposium. FREE registration!!! This is gonna be 🔥🔥🔥!! @VUMCRadOnc @ASTRO_org @ASCO @ARRO_org @ACRORadOnc

@VUMCRadOnc Caveat: half of these people climbed the wall unassisted, and then half these people helped me get on the wall. Thank you to the team, what a blast!

Oh wait...here’s one pic! We climbed a wall (which certainly seemed steeper than it appears in this photo when approached head on)...together!

The retreat today was a great treat for the medical residents. Featuring talk on physician wellness and Vandy resources, coping skills workshop, fancy food, and team-building and leadership development @FitFarmTN. We completed team challenges in record time! Photos come tmrw!

@VUMCRadOnc @BrianBinghamMD @DrWinkfield @davidkcortez @benhopark @KimrynRathmell Love seeing people passionately discussing their research! On lunch break to watch Dr. Fauci. Perfect timing!

Departmental retreat features rising residents @BrianBinghamMD, @ARajkumarMD, #RyanWhitaker alongside @DrWinkfield, physicists #JohnEley #AdamYock, DNA repair expert @davidkcortez, fab med oncs @benhopark @KimrynRathmell, BME prof #MikeMiga, postdocs #YunkaiZhang #RebeccaIhrie

It’s a very busy Friday @VUMCRadOnc. We have the annual departmental research retreat, ROECSG symposium, and Dr. Anthony Fauci speaking at Vanderbilt University’s Commencement. Wowza!

@StephDudzinski @VUmedicine @VanderbiltMSTP @VUMC_Medicine @VUMCRadOnc @vumc_emres @VUMC_Cancer @VUMC_Neurosurg @sumeethj So excited for you guys! Nashville’s loss is Houston’s gain ☺️

Today we celebrated finishing our last day of medical school @VUmedicine! Thank you to the patients & all clinical team members for being incredible teachers throughout our journey. @VanderbiltMSTP @VUMC_Medicine @VUMCRadOnc @vumc_emres @VUMC_Cancer @VUMC_Neurosurg

@VUMCRadOnc This visit was full of gems, but one of my favorites was the need for diversity of thought and approaches to RT.

Thank you #ChrisCrane for spending time with us as our visiting professor! All enjoyed the talk on ablative RT for pancreatic and hepatic cancers followed by resident Q&A. #ablative=90%LC #futureRTadvocates #BradyBunchLookALike

@VUMCRadOnc so excited to be working with these guys!

#TBT the time the PGY2s - now chiefs! - unintentionally wore very similar pants. #Fashion

We’re happy to announce the beginning of a new residency chiefdom - @ARajkumarMD, @BrianBinghamMD, and #RyanWhitaker will be leading us for academic year 2021-2022! #RyanWhitakerNeedsATwitter

@DrewMoghanaki @TylerSbrt @aafp Yes, I do look forward to the “community outreach” part of my future life as an attending

@DrewMoghanaki @TylerSbrt @aafp How many PCPs won’t bring up LDCT for patients with significant medical comorbidities who they *think* have no curative options for lung cance due to lack of education about SBRT?

This is new and HUGE at the same time. "The @AAFP supports the USPSTF recommendation for annual screening for lung cancer" - starting at age 50. #lcsm #radonc aafp.org/family-physici…
